Who Holds Tomorrow? by Stacie Lynn

  We often refer to Wednesday as "hump" day. The middle of the week, the day that seems like if we can get through it we will be ok! Lately it seems like everyday is a Wednesday for me. I find myself saying one step closer to being able to socialize, see my family, go back to work and most of all being able to worship with my church family again as each day passes! This week I began to dig deeper into God's word (my Bible) and the promises that were given to each one of us as Christians. I could hear God's soft voice in my soul whispering because I live you can face tomorrow! Do I believe it? With the ways of the world today? That "Wednesday" doom crept right back in. So I decided to start meditating and listening to one of my favorite songs "My Redeemer Lives" by Nicole C. Mullen. This song ministers to me in such a way that it soothes, uplifts and allows me to pour out any hurt and uncertainty I am feeling. After a few replays of this song and some tears shed. God's whisper sounded louder and I began to say out loud "YES, I can face whatever comes my way everyday because Jesus Christ lives!" I know that same creator of the heavens and earth created me for a purpose. I will survive, I will make it and that better days are ahead not only for me but for all of us who believe! I realized at that moment it's not about what day it is today. Everyday brings new challenges and opportunities . So I am saying good bye to the Wednesday cliché hump day phrase. Each day we live we are always going to be trying to get through it in some way. Some days more then others. Whether it be good or bad or up and down we will get through. As we continue through this Holy week towards the celebration of Easter, let's remember WHO holds our tomorrow!
